Star Wars: Warfront

Anakin vs Dooku

Count Dooku's solar sailer dropped out of hyperspace and landed in the main hangar. Dooku emerged from the ship and walked to the command center. A super tactical droid approached him to greet him as he arrived.

"Count, we have allowed a shuttle to pass, but we have not heard from it." The tactical droid said.

"That shuttle carried a Republic strike team," Dooku said with a glare. "Sound the alarm. I will confront the Jedi."

Data room

R2 beeped to Anakin saying that he transmitted the files to Coruscant.

"Well done R2," Anakin said. "Let's get out of here."

Suddenly the alarms started to blare a foghorn-like sound and the task force froze near the turbolifts.

"This doesn't look good Skyguy," Ahsoka said.

"It always ends up like this Snips," Anakin replied.

The Jedi and clones scurried into the turbolifts. Anakin reached out using the force and sensed a disturbance.

"I sense Count Dooku," Anakin said.

Taloh closed his eyes and reached out as well.

"I sense General Grievous," Taloh said opening his eyes.

"What do we do now?" Ahsoka asked. "Both leaders are here and we have no reinforcements yet."

"I say we split up," Anakin said. " I will confront Dooku, while Taloh confronts Grievous. Ahsoka you will lead Rex and the rest of the squad back to the shuttle and defend it."

"Master, be careful along with Taloh," Ahsoka said glancing at Taloh.

"Hey, I survived several encounters with Dooku," Anakin said with a smile.

"I fought General Grievous before on Skako Minor," Taloh said to Ahsoka. "This won't be difficult for us to handle."

The turbolifts stopped and the doors opened. The task force emerged and the Jedi began to split up. Anakin spotted Dooku near the command center and confronted ignited his lightsaber destroying the droids around him.

"Skywalker," Dooku said with a smirk. "So you've come to stop my operations across the Outer Rim by stealing my data."

"Give it up Count," Anakin said. "The data has been transmitted to the Senate and the Jedi Council."

Dooku grimaced and ignited his curved lightsaber and pointed it at Anakin.

"Foolish to think that a small task force can get past me," Dooku said with a sinister grin. "My forces will find your task force and kill your padawan and the Zakuulan."

"That will never happen on my watch!" Anakin shouted as he charged at Dooku.

The two exchanged heavy blows and the duel kept ending up in a stalemate. Dooku tried to hurl wrecked battle droids at Anakin, but he managed to dodge them and force-push the Sith Lord slamming him into a wall. Anakin grew angry and even tried to finish him off with a force choke, but the Count blasted Anakin with force lighting. This caused Anakin to release him and deflect the blasts with his lightsaber.

"You're not getting away this time!" Anakin said in an angry tone.

"This isn't over Skywalker," Dooku said as he force-pushed Anakin.

Dooku scurried to his Solar sailor and fled with a feeling that he failed to stop the Jedi from succeeding in the Outer Rim. He contacted his master, Darth Sidious via hologram.

"Master," Dooku said. "The Jedi have transmitted the data to the Jedi Council and our operations for the Outer Rim are at risk."

"Most disappointing," Sidious said in an annoyed voice. "This is not the first time that you have lost to Skywalker."

Dooku gave Sidious an anxious expression. He hoped that Sidious does not believe that Anakin will be the death of him.

"Skywalker was not alone," Dooku said. "His padawan, Ahsoka Tano was with him and the Zakuulan, Taloh Matarrin."

"We must remedy this debacle. Begin sending a fleet of ships to blockade Agamar. The Jedi must not escape." Sidious said crossing his arms.

"Very well my master," Dooku replied before deactivating his ship's holoprojector as the Solar Sailer jumped into hyperspace.

Command center,

Anakin contacted Ahsoka with the news that Count Dooku escaped and that he had control of the command center.

"Master we have a problem, more Separatist warships have just emerged from hyperspace," Ahsoka said. "We have to prepare to leave."

"Let's hope Taloh is having better luck with General Grievous," Anakin replied. "As well as Damir handling that fleet."
